What a pre-employment medical confirms

A pre-employment medical asks whether a candidate is fit for the specific role, assessed by a practitioner against the physical demands you describe. It is not a general checkup and it does not produce a medical file for your records. Only the fitness outcome is shared, which is the trust the whole check rests on.

Fitness outcome

Fit, fit with conditions, or not fit for the specific role, as the practitioner determines.

General physical condition

Vitals and physical examination findings, read for their bearing on fitness rather than recorded as a standalone result.

Role-specific physical capability

Assessed against what the role actually requires: manual handling, prolonged standing, working at height, or similar.

Practitioner's determination

The professional judgement behind the outcome, made by the examining practitioner, not by GVS or the employer.

Practitioner of record

Who conducted the assessment, so the finding is attributable rather than anonymous.

What the employer receives

The fitness outcome. The examination detail and any condition discussed with the practitioner stay out of your dashboard.

Sources. A registered medical practitioner conducting the assessment against the physical demands of the role you specify. The outcome is annexed to the case; the examination itself is not.

What the assessment covers

The practitioner works from the role's actual demands, not a fixed checklist. These are the parts most roles draw on.

General fitness

Vitals and overall physical condition, as a baseline for any role.

Vision and hearing

Checked where the role depends on them, such as driving or operating machinery.

Physical demands

Manual handling, standing, or working at height, matched to what the role requires.

Existing conditions

Reviewed only for their bearing on fitness for this role, not recorded as a general history.

How it works

Four steps. The role's physical demands go to the practitioner before the candidate does.

Consent and role profile shared

The candidate consents in writing, and the practitioner is given the physical demands of the role, not just its title.

Examination conducted

The practitioner examines the candidate against that role profile, not a generic checklist.

Fitness outcome determined

Fit, fit with conditions, or not fit for this specific role, decided by the practitioner.

Outcome published

Only the fitness outcome reaches your dashboard. The examination record does not.

Questions we get asked

Does the employer see the full medical report?
No. You receive the fitness outcome: fit, fit with conditions, or not fit for the role. The examination detail behind it stays with the practitioner.
Who decides whether a candidate is fit for the role?
The examining practitioner, working from the physical demands of the role, not GVS and not the employer.
What happens if a candidate has an existing medical condition?
The practitioner considers it only for its bearing on fitness for this specific role. It is not recorded as a general health history and is not shared with you as one.
Is this the same as the drug test?
No, and they are run as separate checks. A drug test screens for specific substances. A pre-employment medical assesses overall fitness for the role. Run one, both, or neither, depending on the role.
Does the candidate pay for the examination?
No. GVS never charges a candidate for a check.
How long does it take?
It depends on appointment scheduling and how quickly the practitioner returns the outcome. The committed number for your roles is set when the package is scoped.
